Oh dear. It is general the assumption that build volumes are not used
by people and you should not depend upon them.
The x11r5 build volumes were reclaimed for space for the x11r6 volumes.
I have not yet had a chance to do the actual builds, unfortunately.
I'll be out of town (at IETF) next week so it's a little on the unlikely
side that I'll get a chance to do the builds at that time, unfortunately.
You might consider building ~x11r6/src/xc/config/makedepend.
I made a symlink farm from there and did:
/usr/athena/bin/imake -I/mit/x11r6/src/xc/config/cf -DTOPDIR=/mit/x11r6/src/xc
/usr/ccs/bin/make
and installed the resulting binary in the outland locker for Solaris.
Hopefully this will be sufficient for you?
